POST request are not idempotent, which means that they are not safely repeatable; and web browsers treat them specially. For example, a browser cannot bookmark or, in some cases, reload a POST request. 
On the other hand, GET requests are idempotent, so they can safely be bookmarked, and a browser is free to issue the request repeatedly without necessarily consulting th user.

Get method doesnot contain any security because it display all information in url bar.But Post got security because it send internally pockets. 
 
Get is faster than Post methods.

Get 
By using Get method in Session managment such as URL-rewriting we cannot get the data sent by URL-rewriting 
Post 
You can use post method without worrying about URL-rewriting.

GET method is used for getting the information that is request on the url but we can give 255 characters on the url this is a limit and also it is visible to all so we cannot give our password on the url.but POST method is used to posting megabytes of information there is no limits.In real time projects we use post() method this is the secret one.depends upon the applications we use both.

GET:get method is used to Retrive the Data,and is contains the Request in the HTTP header.Get is Less Secure then Post

POST: post method is used to Send the Amount of Data,and the Request is send in the Body of the Request.Post is more Secure

1.Get method is used to retrive data from the resources.Post method is used to store the data into the resources.2.In Get method data is send via URL.So,the transaction is very fast.In Post method data is send as packets via sockets.So the process is very slow.3.In Get method the query string is limited.Upto 255 chars only we can send.In Post method there is no such limitations.4.Get method Unsecured. Since,any one can see the data in the address bar.Post method is very secure.

In Get method, the parameters are sent through the request URLs. In post method the paremeteres are embaded within the method.

in GET ther is restriction of sending data.

GET:
GET is used to get data.
In this method request parameters are transmitted in the url.
GET is idempotentent(doing the same thing without any side effects).
GET transmits limited amount of data.
If we write some confidential information(like password),it can be visible, because request parameters are transmitted within the url. So security will not be provided.
POST:
POST is used to post data.
In POST() request parameters are transmitted within the body of the request.

In case of GET(): data will be append to the URL of the browser if there is any sensitive date it will be view easily. we can't sent data properly, if there is more amount of data. It is faster than POST().

In case of POST():Browser sent the request as part of request body and sent a post request.
All the problems arrived by GET() will be solved. But it takes some time to load the URL. It is slower than GET().

1) Get is Faster than Post..

2) Get Is Idempotent i.e same work can be done again and again without harming database...

3) Amount of data send is limited to few characters only and are visible in address bar, so sensitive data cannot be sent via GET.
